Entrances first
Place a camera where visitors approach rather than relying only on a distant street view. A camera mounted too high can show the top of a head instead of useful facial detail.
Make the layout work
Driveways, garages, rear doors and side paths have different viewing needs. Check glare from outdoor lights, vehicle headlights and reflective surfaces. Keep views focused on your property.
Everyday confidence
A compatible PoE system carries camera data and power over network cable. Local recording can continue without remote internet access while equipment remains powered; app access depends on connectivity.
